title: [Evaluation of an Intensified Dental Preventive Programme Aimed at Children with Increased Caries Risk].
abstract: Our study investigated the effect of a selective intensive prevention (SIP) programme on dental health of pupils in comparison to a control group. While no differences were observed in respect to dental health of first graders, the DMF-T values of fourth and 6 graders participating in SIP were significantly lower. Concerning the psychometric variables only few differences were found. The fourth and 6 graders in the test group reported less dental fear than the pupils in the control group.
